These images are one i have taken of my chalk pastel work

Firstly, I sketched out my union jack in colour which I feel look good, as it has a worn effect to it and seems to stand out.

Then, I made the flag using shading pastels which I don't think looks any good as it is to dim and doesn't stand out.

My outcome I will be one of the following:

A logo, a logotype or marquee, a poster campaign, promoting the BME and advertising the opening, an exhibition catalogue or booklet, detailing some of the events or attractions or a flyer to promote the event.

I have chosen to do:
A Poster Campaign

Rolling Stones

The Rolling Stones are an English rock band, who was formed in London in April 1962 by Brian Jones, Ian Stewart, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. Originally, bassist Bill Wyman and drummer Charlie Watts completed the early line-up. Then Jones led the band until Jagger and Richards assumed leadership after teaming as songwriters. The Rolling Stones are notable in modern popular music for assimilating various musical genres into their own collective sound. Throughout the band's career, their musical contributions have been marked by a continual reference and reliance on musical styles including blues, rhythm and blues, country, folk, reggae, dance, and world music, exemplified by Jones' collaboration with the Master Musicians of Jajouka, as well as traditional English styles that use stringed instrumentation like harps. Brian Jones experimented with the use of non-traditional instruments such as the sitar and slide guitar in their early days.The group started out covering early rock 'n' roll and blues songs, and have never stopped playing live or recording cover songs.
